Let’s Get Stuck In!, or Literature and Politics Today

Magnesia Litera and politics from two points of view. The most famous Czech literary prize will announce this year’s laureates in a few days. What is the politics of this competition, especially in the prose and journalism categories? And how are political themes (and which ones) reflected in the books that made it onto this year’s longlists. These are questions that this discussion of this year’s nominated names and titles would like to, and ought to, raise.
